I have a Canon A75 Powershot in excellent condition. Since yesterday it dosn't work. When it is in capture mode, I cannot see the picture from the LCD display. Display is working. When I try to take picrures I get a black picture with nothing on it, just like I am capturing in a very dark place. But I can see pictures that I have captured before the problem. What can I do? I am Christos, from Cyprus. Is there anyone who can fix this problem with my camera?

I cannot see anything when in camera, film, or view mode. When I snap a photo, it sounds like a picture was taken and the flash still goes off, but nothing is displayed on the screen. Only when I attempted to upload my photos onto my PC was I able to see that my camera was in fact still taking pictures!

Does it show pictures on the computer or is it black images, if they are black, your cameras lens cover could be stuck, it opens up when the lens is fully open, dirt-sand and dust or old grease causes the problem. otherwise your LCD on the camera cou ...

I have a fully charged battery and I turn the camera on and all of a sudden I cannot get a display on the screen. It gets a few purple waves, but goes back to a black screen. I have it in camera mode and the original settings i had the camera in when i took pictures, which came out very nice. I saved all my photo's to my computer to see if maybe i filled the memory stick, but still no luck...

The display is probably bad - it can be replaced. Try taking a picture and download the results on a computer - if it's ok, then that confirms a bad display. The camera is still usable but with a bad display viewer. ...

Camera's screen is blank. Its currently stuck in video mode so i can record and view it on the computer but i cannot see what i am recording via the touch screen. i thought it was the screen so i got a replacement of ebay but that still hasnt fixed it. This all occurred from a minor drop. It was sitting on its bottom on the table and got tapped forward and has had a blank screen ever since.. approx 2years old.

It might have a hairline crack or broken connection in one of the circuitry inside. I'm sure you might be able to find it coz you were able to replace the screen your self (?) good luck! ...

I cannot turn the flash back on. When I push on the lightning bolt button nothing happens, the display shows the flash turned off. Is something wrong with the camera. I have not had it that long and just use the IA mode and I know it worked before; can I reset the camera back to factory settings? I tried all the other modes and was able to use in in C1 but then I was messing around with that and now won't work in that either. Thank you for your help.
